During the twentieth century, a thriving artistic community produced native-born masters and attracted foreigners, all of whom depicted the extraordinary conditions of Mexican life. On view will be important works by key Mexican figures, including Manuel Alvarez Bravo, Antonio Reynoso, Armando Salas Portugal, Kati Horna, and Bernice Kolko, as well as by artists who found inspiration in Mexico, including extraordinary images by Laura Gilpin and Teobert (later Teoberto) Maler.
